Chapter 19 - Chapter 19

The next day.

Fuyuki City.

It was very lively today because the entire Matou family had turned into ice sculptures overnight.

The onlookers were amazed. Although it is almost winter now, it is not yet time for the ground to freeze. Why did it freeze suddenly? And why was only the Matou family frozen?

No matter how hard the ice was struck, it could not be broken.

Just as the onlookers were speculating, an old man in a priest's costume came to the Matou house.

The identity of the priest is a member of the Kotomine church organization in Fuyuki City, whose name is Kotomine Risei.

When the crowd saw the priest, they moved out of the way.

Kotomine Risei is a household name for often dealing with the aftermath of the devastation caused by the mysterious side. Although the people don't know why this kind of thing needs a priest to explain it, who else but Kotomine Risei could do it all?

After all, anything can be explained away as a gas explosion, and no one would know better.

In the distance, Tohsaka Tokiomi and Kotomine Kirei looked at the Matou family estate.

"What's going on? Why is the Matou family frozen? Who did magus do it?" Tohsaka Tokiomi frowned slightly.

He had just sent Sakura to the Matou house when this happened.

"Kirei, can't that ice be melted?" Tokiomi Tohsaka asked the man next to him.

"Sorry, teacher, that ice cannot be destroyed, whether it is burned with fire or struck with tools," Kotomine Kirei said with a blank and respectful expression.

"Is it magic?" Tokiomi Tohsaka asked in surprise. This ice is beyond the level of mere magecraft.

"No, teacher, I didn't feel any trace of magic."

Tohsaka Tokiomi was even more surprised when he heard that. If it was not even a magus, who could have caused such a situation?

Since the entire Matou family was frozen, they couldn't even get in.

So Tohsaka Tokiomi had basically decided that Sakura had been frozen inside, and then froze to death.

At this time, Tohsaka Tokiomi's face was gloomy. Damn, who is it and why?

He had finally found a magus family that could let his daughter inherit a magic engraving, but it was destroyed, and even his daughter was lost with it.

After returning to the Tohsaka house, Tohsaka Tokiomi saw a woman with an old-fashioned appearance and lovely green hair sitting on the sofa.

This person is Sakura's mother, Tohsaka Tokiomi's wife, Tohsaka Aoi.

Her original name was Zenjou Aoi, born into the Zenjou family. The Zenjou family had ancestors who were magicians several generations ago. Although she is only a commoner who has nothing to do with magic, the magic factor still flows in her blood. It is precisely because of this that Tohsaka Tokiomi proposed to her and got a response. She gave birth to two daughters, Tohsaka Rin and Tohsaka Sakura.

When she saw Tohsaka Tokiomi walking in, she got up immediately, ran to his side, and asked anxiously, "Where's Sakura? Anata, where is our daughter?"

Tohsaka Tokiomi's face was gloomy. He shook his head.

Tohsaka Aoi reacted instantly. Her face went slack, and her eyes suddenly became empty. She simply fainted.

A small head outside the room watched the conversation and atmosphere in the room.

Tohsaka Rin is Tohsaka Sakura's older sister. This morning, she discovered that her lovely younger sister was missing. After listening carefully, she discovered that yesterday, her father had given Sakura away for adoption to another family.

Just when she was going to question her father about why he did it, she suddenly overheard Sakura's bad news.

Seeing her sad parents, Tohsaka Rin couldn't say anything.

She carefully returned to her room; she was very angry now.

She wanted to find the murderer and avenge her sister. But when she thought about it, she didn't have the strength to take revenge. Her expression could not help but become depressed.

At this time, she suddenly found a scarlet coat of arms on the back of her hand.

This is...? The Command Spell to participate in the Holy Grail War. As the heir to the Tohsaka family, she certainly knew what it was. Her father also had one.

She had heard that the Holy Grail was the almighty wishing machine that could grant any wish.

At this time, Tohsaka Rin's eyes lit up. Yes, she can make a wish to the Holy Grail to save Sakura. The summoned servant could also be used as a force for revenge.

However, what could she summon without a catalyst?

Tohsaka Rin was distressed.

In the end, after thinking about it, she decided a genius magician like herself could summon a good heroic spirit without a relic.

Tohsaka Rin finally decided to perform the summoning directly without relics.

Einzbern Castle, Germany.

In a room, Tohsaka Sakura slept quietly on the bed.

Sakura seemed to have a very long dream; she dreamed that she was abandoned by her parents and sister. She was caught by a fiendish man and dropped into a basement full of hideous bugs. Just when she was about to be eaten by bugs, a handsome young man like a god descended from the sky and wiped out all the bugs and demons, taking her to heaven.

As soon as the picture turned, there was a blue sky, and the floor was covered with beautiful flowers.

Sakura had grown up, wearing a snow-white wedding dress, walking step by step. A figure turned his head—a handsome man.

The man looked at Sakura and smiled, took her hand, and made a marriage vow. In the end, the two figures overlapped.

Then Sakura woke up. Seeing an unfamiliar environment made her nervous.

She realized that being abandoned by her parents was not a dream. Thinking of this, she couldn't help but panic.

She was afraid that she had not been saved and was still in that hell-like place.

"Haruto-onii-chan!" Sakura hurriedly shouted.

Sakura got up quickly and ran outside the room, looking for Haruto's figure.

At this moment, a clear voice came from behind Sakura.

"Sakura, you're up. Let's go and have breakfast."

Sakura turned her head quickly and saw the person she wanted to see most.

"Haruto-onii-chan!" Sakura threw herself into Haruto's arms.

Sakura said "I... I thought you didn't want Sakura anymore."

"How could I? I couldn't ask for a more cute little Sakura to be my sister." Haruto touched Sakura's head.

"Let's go, I'll introduce you to everyone." Haruto took Sakura towards the dining room.

Sakura's eyes were sad when she heard that. Is it just as his sister?

No, she doesn't want to be his sister; she wants it to be like the dream.

Tohsaka Sakura secretly set a goal.

They arrived at the dining room, and he introduced Sakura to Irisviel and Illya.

Everyone started to eat.

Sakura sat in her seat, drinking milk and secretly looking at Irisviel.

Is this a rival? When she saw Irisviel's figure, she couldn't compare it with her own.

Sakura wailed in her heart.

Then she was shocked to think that since she was still growing up, she might not be worse than her in the future. And when Irisviel gets old, Haruto-onii-chan will be hers.

Thinking of this, Sakura laughed inwardly.

Looking at Sakura's appearance, Illya couldn't help but think.

Sakura is really pitiful to have encountered such a thing. There are still lingering effects.

It seems that she will be more concerned about her in the future.

At this moment, Haruto suddenly discovered that there was a Command Spell on the back of Sakura's hand.

He came to Sakura.

"Sakura, this thing didn't seem to be there just now." Haruto grabbed Sakura's hand.

"Huh, isn't this the Command Spell that Dad always talks about? It seems to be for participating in some Holy Grail War." Sakura looked at this Command Spell, which was similar to her father's, and asked curiously.

"That's right. I'm actually a participant, and so is Illya. Having a Command Spell is equivalent to having an admission ticket to the Holy Grail War," Haruto said with a sigh.

"Can I participate too?" Sakura asked.

"You can, and you may have to meet your father at that time," Haruto thought about it and said sternly.

Sakura frowned, thinking about how her father had adopted her and how she had almost fallen into hell.

Then she said firmly, "I want to participate."

Seeing Sakura so determined, Haruto didn't stop her. He patted her head.

"Okay, don't worry, I will protect you."

Sakura squinted her eyes and let Haruto touch her head very happily.

At this time, a ray of light appeared, directly shrouding Haruto.

When everyone reacted, they found that Haruto had long since disappeared.

"Haru/Onii-chan!".
